Mobility Exchange: Recover. Restore. Reuse.
We restore suitable donated mobility equipment and connect Ottawa-area residents facing financial and accessibility barriers with equipment that supports everyday independence.
How We Help
Our approach to strengthening healthcare systems in underserved communities.

Recover
We identify usable surplus equipment from Canadian healthcare facilities that would otherwise be discarded.
Refurbish & Test
Qualified biomedical technicians inspect, test, and restore each device to safe working condition before it ships.
Deliver
We ship to partner hospitals in West Africa and the Caribbean, matched to each facility’s needs, power supply, and technical capacity.
Train
Through our VitalBridge program, clinicians and technicians learn to operate and maintain the equipment safely.
Our Approach
Three integrated pillars guiding our work with healthcare partners in West Africa and the Caribbean.
